Honister Hause Youth Hostel (Cumbria) weather

Headline:

Spells of sunshine today and feeling warmer.

Today:

Any mist or fog quickly clearing after dawn to leave a dry day with lengthy sunny periods, some cloud bubble up over the Lake District at times. Feeling warmer than on Saturday with lighter winds. Maximum temperature 23 °C.

Tonight:

A dry and pleasant evening before skies cloud over from the north, with outbreaks of rain reaching Cumbria during the second half of the night. Feeling rather humid by dawn. Minimum temperature 12 °C.

Monday:

Cloudy, particularly across the north of the region, brighter elsewhere, with some sunny spells. Feeling increasingly warm and humid. Maximum temperature 25 °C.

Outlook for Tuesday to Thursday:

Largely dry and very warm with plenty of sunshine Tuesday. Isolated thunderstorms possible overnight before turning somewhat fresher from Wednesday, with a chance of showers at times.

High pressure will likely build leading to a period of fairly dry and settled weather for many at first, with a few light showers in the north. There may however be some heavy, thundery showers over the weekend, especially in the south. Temperatures will likely remain above normal, and much of the south could still see warm or very warm temperatures for at least a couple of days. There is a possibility that the heat could last further into the week, especially in the south. Beyond this high pressure will likely continue leading to plenty of fine weather, perhaps with the odd heavy shower or thunderstorm. Temperatures will likely continue to be above normal but there are some signs of fresher conditions developing in the north later.

High pressure, and therefore largely settled conditions overall, appears more likely at first. Although dry weather is likely to dominate, periods of rain or showers and thunderstorms may develop at times. Above average temperatures overall seem most likely but there may be some fresher interludes in the north at first. There remains potential for further hot spells to develop, especially in the east and south. By the turn of the month, there are signals for high pressure to become less dominant with perhaps a greater chance of some rain, though there is some uncertainty in this aspect of the forecast.
